The 60 second writing challenge 
When I started writing seriously (even before I went pro), I made myself write an op-ed type essay each day. I usually wrote each essay in one sitting, and gave myself an hour to complete them. I also gave myself the added challenge of a limited word count: between 300 and 500 words. So, I had to learn to write tightly and while under a deadline. All in all, writing those essays did a lot to help me develop as a writer.
What I did might not appeal to every non-fiction writer. So why not try the 60-second “Stopwatch Challenge”? Aimed at copywriters, this challenge forces you to write something that can be spoken within a minute. Even if you’re not a copywriter, you should give this a try.
